Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, Tuesday promised a reward of N1 million and full employment for the best participant in the N-Power Programme of the Federal Government.

The governor, however, called on the FG to fully tackle unemployment headlong, saying the N-Power Programme was only a palliative.


He made the promise in Ado-Ekiti during an interactive session with the participants from the state at the Government House, Ado-Ekiti.

In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, he quoted the governor as saying that the state government would fully play its role in ensuring the success of the programme.
No fewer than 3400 people are taking part in the programme in the state.

Participants are to‎ take part in teaching, health, community and agriculture activities for the next two years and would be paid a monthly stipend of N30,000 each.

He said, "This is only a palliative as it will last for only two years and I am strongly appealing to the Federal Government to take th‎e issue of job creation serious. When somebody partakes in this programme and is sent back to the labour market after two years, that is going back to where he or she started, the labour market.
"As for us, we will do our duty to distribute participants to where they would work and monitor them as well as ensuring that we do a proper data capturing of the participants.

One of th‎e participants, Oke Motunrayoo Alaba, commended the governor for his support for the programme.

LOL one of the gullible wailers, Fayose have been barking like dog since 2014, Show me one response to him from PMB? That is what we call Respect....

Story Story, Fayose won't pay anything, his he not the guy owning corp members who served effortless in his state, he didn't pay me nothing after serving there.

I thought he said the policy is not good, sustainable n he will not support it, why changing his mind?
Politicians are our problem, we just don't know it or have chosen to intensionally ignore it.

Fayose a good role model

Governor fantastic

why do Nigerians always get excited when Politicians play to the gallery? what is stopping the Governor from creating jobs?
